Bernard Sumner and Peter Saville Talk Style, 1984

Went browsing for new music today and came away wondering why so many bands seem to have a lack of discerning aesthetics (as manifested by the lackluster album covers I witnessed). I craved Peter Saville. Designed (Princeton Architectural Press, 2003) by Peter Saville showcases some of the best album covers of all time...brainchildren of the man talking to Mr. Sumner above. Another publication on the visionary, Peter Saville: Estate 1-127 (JRP|Ringier, 2007).
